Answer:
This question is ambiguous or might not be complete
Step-by-step explanation:
Generally, the periodic table is divided into 4 blocks; the s-block, p-block, d-block and the f-block.
The elements found in the s and d blocks are generally metals. Group 1 and 2 (1A and 2A as shown in the image attached) are the groups in the s-block. Elements in group 1 are called alkali metals while elements in group 2 are called alkali earth metals. Elements in the d-block (all the elements between 2A and 3A in the image attached) are called transition metals.
Some metals are also found on the p-block, they are called basic metals (shaded purple in the image attached).
Aside from the above, other elements on the periodic table are either semi-metals (found on the p-block between the basic metals and non-metals), non-metals (also found on the p-block) or radioactive elements (found on the f-block).
